Wednesday 12th July 2012July Evening Walk: St Michael's and GorhamburySadly, even in summer, the Gorhambury permissive path closes at 6pm, but I have come up with an alternative plan of a 5 - 6 mile walk through Verulamium park and beyond the Verulam estate, starting at the Verulamium Museum car park just after the time it becomes free to park there - 6.30 for 6.45

Tuesday 7th AugustAugust Evening Walk: Upper Lea Valley

Our last evening walk of the year. Starting from Wheathampstead and following the River Lea to the west. Back in good time to visit one of the local hostelries and before darkness descends

This beautiful 10 mile walk follows waymarked trails on parts of the Ridgeway, the Icknield Way and the Aylesbury Ring and includes five hills, Bacombe, Coombe, Whiteleaf, Pulpit and Beacon Hills. Three of the hills, Coombe, Whiteleaf and Beacon provide the best panoramic views of the walk. Gradients are generally gentle with one optional steep pull up to Beacon Hill. The walk offers significant stretches of woodland interspersed by views over open countryside.
